I just talked to a guy in Sudbury Ont. He ordered some stuff for a busted machine and tells me he doesn't need it until Tuesday.
It seems that not only do they get Good Friday off, (Sounds like a national thing) but he doesn't work on Monday because they get that off for Easter!
Of course the lakes are still frozen over, and there's a good bit of snow still on the ground, but still!
How many of you TB Canadians have a long weekend coming up?

Downside: people hate you because they're ignorant
Upside: Good Friday holiday - stock markets closed |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2002 Location: Prince Edward Island | | | Right now there's no snow and we've been around 5 degrees Celcius for a few weeks. We get 6 days a year where either you don't work and get paid for it, or work and get paid time and a half.
Christmas day,
New Years Day,
Labour Day,
Remembrance Day,
Canada Day,
and either Easter Monday or Good Friday, most businesses alternate each year with the Easter one.
In Quebec though they don't celebrate Remembrance Day (Veterans Day) and instead celebrate St John Baptist which here is mostly a seperatist holiday. You can drink in public parks during John Baptist, but you best not if you're English so I stayed home.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Jul 2006 Location: Columbus, Ohio | | | At my job we get Good Friday off but also get the week of July 4th off and the week between Christmas and New Year off as well. We also get Thursday and Friday off for Thanksgiving. On top of all that we get 15 days of paid vacation to use per year. However, I haven't worked in 3 months because of wrist surgery but I'm still getting paid because I hurt my wrist at work. Imagine that, right here in the USA, even though it's a Japanese company.
